12' Sears Jon boat. Johnson 5 hp with a tuned exhaust that bumped it up to 5.1 hp. Don't know how fast we were going, but someone walking along the riverbank steadily pulled away from us....

I was able to ride in Dave Scotts Bacardi O3 boat a couple of years back and we went 120 MPH a couple of times, with more power if needed. Auggie was throttle and Robbie was driving. That was the best ride I have every had. 
Thanks guys.
Rich.

2005 Havasu Desert Storm.
30 Spectre, 114mph. Still pulling but water became real snotty.
New power for this year should make it interesting.

The infamous OSO banner boat Strip Poker 109 MPH.
Randy from fast boats took me for a blast in a 36 Nor-Tech at 135 MPH. Unfortunately mine is quite a bit slower
